Happiness is an opened book of poems , poems about ordinary alleys under the sky of the city .
幸福就是一本摊开的诗篇,关于在城市的天空下,那些寻常巷陌的诗。
Most of these poems , though , like the kingdoms that were so often their themes , no longer exist .
不过,这些诗篇中的大多数与它们描述的那些王国一道湮没在历史的长河中。
Covering the period from 1968 to 2011 , " yellow tulips " , mr fenton 's latest collection of new and previously published poems , traces his constant movement from place to place .
They included all the songs and stories he had heard from his father , the poems recited by his teachers , the alphabet-words stuck up round the kitchen by his mother , glittering fragments of hopkins and joyce and yeats .
